Cellist S. Hauser's recent performances in the Baltic states have been cancelled at his request following a scandal, as confirmed by event organizers to the Lrytas portal. They stated that no further comments or statements would be made regarding the cancellation. This decision has raised eyebrows, given the heightened public interest in the artist's reputation following recent events in Lithuania.

Amidst this controversy, S. Hauser took to Instagram to share a video in which he performs the Lithuanian song "Trys milijonai" by Marijonas Mikutavičius, surprising many with this unexpected gesture. The video featured a backdrop of the Cathedral Square, highlighting a connection to the local culture and showcasing his appreciation for Lithuania, even while facing backlash in the region.

Additionally, S. Hauser has been working on a social media project titled "Music Unites the World," which aims to promote unity through music by recording iconic songs from various countries. This initiative is particularly significant as it includes a selection of countries that has sparked discussion among fans, especially regarding the inclusion of Russia, raising questions about the artist's intentions and connections in light of the ongoing geopolitical tensions.
